TIL BELLS.

Hear the sledges with the bells
Silver bells
What a world of merriment their melody
foretells
How they tinkle, tinkle, tinkle,
In the icy air of night.
While the stars that oversprinkle
All the heavens, seem to twinkle
With crystalline delight;
Keeping time, time, time
In sort of Runic Rhyme
To the naturalization that SO musicaly
wells
From the bells, bells, bells, bells,
Bells, bells, bells
From the jingling and the tinkling Of the
bells.
--Ertrsct from Edgar allan POe's metodioas

THE DYING YEAR.
A WATCHNIGHT SERMON FOR
THE SEASON.

A Most Vivid Pen-Picture by That
Most Eloquent Divine, DIR. w. f.
Munsey.
This is the first Sabbath and the
first day in 1888. Last night the Old
Year died. Did you see that old man, p
SO pale, frail, and ghostly, who stood
out upon the bleak and icy hills last
night, leaning in his decrepitude upon
the feeble arm of his last surviving
but dying child, the departing De-
cemberf The chaplet of buds, flowers,
and fruit, wreathed around his brow
by Spring, Summer, and Autumn
were frosted by Winter; his sandals
were old and covered with snow and
mud his garments were tattered, and
glistening with sleet were folded
around his wasted form his gray
locks were frosty; his breath was cold;
and his pulse quivered like an icy
thread in his chilled and shrunken
arm.
Who was he? He was the child of
remo1seless Time He was one Of a
numerous family whose genealogy pre-
sents Us no two contemporaries. The
birth Of one has always been preceded
by the death of the solitary other. The
wailing requiems over the death OF the
one have always ended in lullabies
over the cradle of its successor. Who
was he? He was the old year. Last
night, Eternity's horologa tolled out
low twelve upon its sounding bell 1t
was his death knell and at that lone
ly hour while We slept, when cadaver-
Gus ghosts are fabled to creep amid
the ivied ruins Of castles old, and
shrek through the crevices Of totter-
ing church beltries, and dry old bones
shake and chatter in their vaults in
church-yards, he died, and the spirits
of winter hearsed him in cold cloud
drawn by boreal winds, and drove him
out to sepulcrrai oblivion ana buried
him in a grave whose cerements are
eternal. He will return 10 more-no,
forever. Farewell, Old Year! let thy
cold ghost mingIe with the shades of
thy predecessors, but let it not come
back, oh, let it not come back to haunt
US when we die
But as the misty spirit of the Old
Year wreathed away into the dark dim
past, the angels of God sang the birth
hymn of the Nrw Year And still you
may hear the inspiring touches Of the
| dying music still lingering in the
mountain-tops, and quivering gently
in the happy air, and coursing sweetly
the nerve corridors leading To the
minds sensorium to greet the human
soul.
The New Year is here, and with
him his children. Two come crowned
with glittering frost, and robes of trail
ing snow; two with tempests in their
fists, and stray sunbeams upon their
brows four clothed in green enamel
led with buds, flowers, and fruit, and
straited with golden rIpeness; three
with robes of red, yellow, and purple
one in freezing nudity with sceptro
of ice Before the first may pass we
may be dead, and the remaining elcv-
en- may dance their rounds upen our
graves.

BRER BREWERS BILL.

Mr.. Brewer will probably introduce
bill TO make congressional sessions
begin on the first Monday in january,
instead of the first Monday in Deeem-
Der, to continue, with recess interims,
two years.
Therei is a good deal of sound sense
in this idea of continuous sessions Of
the lawmaking body. It is foreign
practice, but one which we could well
afford to initiate. There is nothing in
it to prevent recesses, at any time and
for any period the two houses may
agree upon; and the existence of two
perfectly organized chambers through
out the year, ready to reassemble at a
moments notice if separated, would
give the country an additional sense
of security in any emergency that
might arise, like threat of war or q
financial panic The plan of having
the members of the House enter upon
their duties as soon as practicable after

DAY.

The Senate is again addressing it
self to the proposed constitutional
amendment changing the date of in
auguratlon day to the 20th of April,
which failed of attention in the House
last session through Mr.. fuckers con-
tinued absence from his seat and his
unwillingness that any other member
Of his committee report it. But for this
circumstance the legislatures of all the
States might have acted upon it this
winter. and the new amendment gone
into effect at the beginning of the sec
ond century of the Constitution AS it
is, Senator Hoar, who re-introduces it,
postpones its application to the year
1898. This session a majority Of the
Senators are aware of the nature of
the measure and of the arguments in
its favor. There are enough of its
friends who held over to insure its ear
ly passage if they viii put little en-
ergy in the work. By the time it goes
to the House that body will have a
new chairman for It's Judiciary com
mittee, who, it is to be hoped, will find
a chance to report the resolution
promptly if his associates instr uct him

All interesting discussion wonld probably
bring your business men s section meetings
into more general recognition and favor
Lastly, as to the young mems section,
need say nothing, because they are, as /
understand, in prospecting condition.
The topics that interest them are so palpa-
bic and So obvious that there can be no
difficulty in that respect. The personal
purity of young men, the question OF self
taxation for purposes Of charity. and the
question Of intellectual self-culture these
seem to me the three prominent points
which should be discussed in the young
mems section.
Let me finally say, that in regard to the
monthly meetings of the home section. to
return to that point once more, ii seems to
me that possibly a beginning could be
made in the direction Of providing those
substitutes for prayer of which ! spoke. if
in connection with the meetings of the
home section the society would assemble
